An index.html, in some cases default.html, is the main page of our website. It is the default file that our browser/server look for to view our website. The file extension(.html) also varies to what programming language we are using.

PHP -> index.php

ASP -> index.asp

ASP.Net ->index.aspx

JSP -> index.jsp

HTML ->index.html

It can also be set on some programming language on what specific file should the browser/server look for.

So be reminded that if you are developing a website that you should set the main page’s file name of your website to index.
